Tized, Nezvous Mothers
MaKe Unhappy Homes -Their Condition Irritates
Both Husband and Children How Thousands
of Mothers Have Been Saved From Nervous
Prostration and Made Strong and Well.
Mrs. CtesterCurtyQ Mrs Cbas. KQrown
A nervous, irritable mother, often on
the verge of hysterics, is unfit to caro
for children; it ruins a child's disposi
tion 'and reacts upon herself. The
trouble 'between children and their
mothers too often is due to the fact
that the mother has some fcxnalo weak
ness, and she is entirely nnfit to bear
the strain upon her nerves that govern
ing children involves; it is impossible
for her to do anything calmly.
The ills of women act like a firebrand
upon tho nerves, consequently nlue
tenths of the nervous prostration, ner
vous despondency, "the blues," sleep
lessness, and nervouB irritability of
women arise from borne derangement
of the female organism.
Do you experience fits of depression
with restlessness, alternating with
extreme irritability? Are your spirits
easily affected, so that one minute you
laugh, and the next minute you feel
like crying ?
Do you feel something like a ball ris
ing in your throat and threatening to
choke you ; all the senses perverted,
morbidly sensitive to light and sound ;
pain in the ovaries, and especially
between the shoulders; bearing down
pains; nervous dyspepsia, and almost
continually cross and snappy ?
If so, your nerves are in a shattered
condition, and you are threatened with
nervous prostration.
Proof is monumental that nothing in
the world is better for nervous prostra
tion than Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege
table Compound ; thousands and thou
sands of women testify to this fact
Mrs. Chester Curry, Leader of tha
Ladies' Symphony Orchestra, 42 Sara
toga Street, East Boston, Mass., writes;
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:
"For eight years I was troubled with ex
tromo nervousness and hysteria, brought on by
irregularities. I could neither enjoy life nor
sleep nights; I was very irritable, norvou
and despondent.
" Lydin E. Pinkham's Vep'tnble Compound
was recommended and pro ed to bo the only
remedy that helped mo. I Imvo daily
improved in health until I am now strong
and well, and all nervousness has disap
peared." Mrs. Charles F. Brown, Vice-President
of tho Mothers' Club 21 Cedar
Terrace, Hot Springs, Ark., writes :
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:
" I dragged through nlno years of miserable
existence, worn out with pain and norvou s
ness, until it seemed as though I should fly.
I then noticed a statement of a woman trou
bled as I was, and the wonderful results she
derived from Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound, I decided to try it. I did so, and
at tho end of three months I was a different
woman. My nervousness was all gone. I was
no longer irritnblo, and my husband fell in
love with mo all over again."
Women should remember that Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound is
the medicine that holds the record for
the greatest number of actual cures of
female ills, and take no substitute.
Free Atlvico to Women.
Mrs. Pinkham, Lynn, Mass., invites
nil sick women to write to her for advice.

Famous Highway to the Southwest
Built Only a Century Ago.
A hundred years ago tho eyes of
America wore on tho southwest Wo

Spain over tho closing of tho Missis
sippi, nnil under orders from Washing
ton, Wilkinson, In command of Fort
Adams, held solemn conclave with tho
Indians who owned tho cast hank of
tho big river, nnd by treaty establish
ed n sacred postroad through their
country.
It left NasHvllIo on tho old Buffalo
traco, crossed tho Tennessco at Col
herl's ferry below tho Mussel shoals,
and, striking tho hills hack of the Hlg
Dlack, came down to Natchez and on
to New OrleaiiB, with a branch to tho
Walnut hills. Tho rontl was moro
than n military necessity, for so many
pirates Infested" tho Mississippi thai
merchants returning from New Or
leans needod"a safer route home with
their money.
After It was opened it hecamo all
things to the southwest. Methodism
went down that wny In the person of
Tohlns Gibson; later Lorenzo Dow fol
lowed him with tho camp meeting

down to Natchez over this routo in
1813 and marched it back ngaln next
spring. A.nd from that day till nearly

of that country's activity. Now tho
railroads have come, the settlers have
moved down Into tho valleys and
opened up poorer roads In tho b'eds of

Claims Cure for Appendicitis.
Dr. Pond of Liverpool, England, has
advanced a new theory with defeienco
to the-origin of appendicitis nnd other
disturbances of the digestive organs.
He calls attention to tho fact that
such ailments can often be attributed
to antlmonlal poisoning, nnd tho
source of the antimony taken up by
man is said to bo the rubber rings
which aro frequently used to close nil
sorts of bottles.
Dr. Pond has established the fact
that such rings consist of almost one
third their weight of antimony. Tho
antimony Is not only dissolved by the
mineral waters containing alkaiis nnd
organic acids, but these rubber rings,
as dally observation shows, soon be
come brittle nnd some of the com
pound falls into the contents of tho
vessels.
Dr. Pond claims to have found that
a frequently repeated introduction of
antimony can become tho Bource of a
series of disturbances of the nutritive
nnd digestive system, especially
through continued weakening of tho
muscles of the stomach and intestines.

Licht a setback, at first.
It seemed so simhle to turn Calcium Carbide into
Gas-light that over 600 different kinds of "tanks" and
"Acetylene Machines" were invented, patented, and
marketed for the purpose, by about as many different
people.
Well, the thing to be expected certainly happened 1
About 530 of these "Acetylene Machines" had been
invented and sold by people who knew more about
Tinware than they did about Gas-making.
The "Calcium Carbide" was all right all the time,
but 530 of the machines for turning it into Gas were
all wrong all the time.
So Acetylene Gas "got a bad name," though it is
clear enough now that it never deserved it at any time.
It was like selling Wood Stoves to burn Hard Coal
in, and then blaming the Coal for not burning.
Lots of things happened to grieve the Owners of
these 530 makes of alleged "Acetylene Machines."
But very few accidents occurred from them even in
the days of rank experiment and dense ignorance,
among, "Generator" Makers.
Of course, a gun will go off unexpectedly, now and
then, if the trigger he pulled by a person who "didn't
know it was loaded."
But, that's no fault of the Ammunition is it?
Well, finally the Insurance Companies got after
these 530 odd makes of "Acetylene Machines" that
wouldn't Acctylate, and the Insurance Board made an
investigation of all Generators that were submitted to
them.
Then, out of the 600 odd "Machines" patented,
only about 70 were "permitted" by the Insurance Board
to be used.
Oh, what a howl was there I
By "permitted" I mean that tfte Insurance Board
was willing that any building should be Insured, with
out extra charge, which used any one of these 70
Acetylene Generators it had found safe, and effective,
jus as it permitted houses to he piped for City Gas,
or wired for Electricity, under proper conditions.
Now, the Insurance Companies ought to know
whether or not these 70 different makes of Acetylene
Generators were absolutely Safe to use.
Because, they have to pay the hills, if Fire or Ex
plosion occurs, from any one of the Acetylene Gener
ators they authorize.
And, here's a proof of their good judgment.
Though there arc now Two Million people using
AcctylcncJ.ight in America, there have only bcen7oir
Fires from it in one year, against 8865, Fires from'
KcroVenc and Gasoline. .
There have also been 4691 Fires from Electricity,
1707 Fires from City Gas, and 520 Fires from Candles.
Besides these there have been 26 Fires from the
Sun's rays, But, only our Fires from Acetylene.
That shows how careful the Insurance Board was
in its examination of Acetylene Generators, and in
"permitting" only the 70 makes that were above sus
picion, out of the 600 experiments that were once on
the market.
Well, the boom in Acetylene Lighting made lower
Prices possible on the material it is derived from, viz.,
Calcium Carbide, a material that looks like Granite
but acts like Magic.
Today, Acetylene Light is a full third cheaper than
Kerosene Light, or Gasoline Light, per Candle Power.
It is not more than half thejprice of Electric Light,
nor three-fourths that of City Gas.
If I can't prove ticsc statements to your full satis
faction my name is not "Acetylene Jones."
But Acetylene is wiorr than the safest and cheapest
Light of the year 1905.
It is also the Whitest Light the nearest to natural
Sunlight in health-giving Blue and Violet rays, and
because of this, with its freedom from flicker, it is
the easiest of all Artificial Light on the Eyes.
It is so much like real Sunlight that it has made
plants grow 24 hours per day in dark cellars where no
ray of Sunlight could reach them. It made them grow
twice as fast as similar plants that had only the Sun
light of day-time, viz., half the time.
That was proven by Cornell University in a three
months' experiment made this very year.
Now, I've saved up for the last a point more im
portant to you than all the others about Acetylene
Light.
It consumes only one-fourth as much of the vital
Oxygen fromHhc Air of Living rooms or bed-rooms,
as cither Kerosene or City( Gas-Light consumes.
That's a tremendous difference in a lifetime, mark
you three-fourths of a difference.
Because, Oxygen is Life.
And every bit of Oxygen stolen from thejungs of
Women, Guldren and Men, through Lighting, is a
loss that can never be made good again.
A 24 Candlc-Power Acetylene Light costs you only
two-fifths of a cent per hour. t
That's about $SS per year, i(. burned every night
in the year for four steady hours.
A Kerosene Lamp of equal capacity would cost you
a third more, viz. : three-fifths of a cent per hour for
Kerosene alone, or $8.75 per year.
That's exclusive of broken lamp chimneys, new
wicks, and the everlasting drudgery and danger of
cleaning, filling and trimming daily.
I want to prove these figures to you, Reader, if you
are a house-owner or storekeeper.
Tell me how many rooms you've got and I'll tell you
what it will cost to light them with brilliant, beautiful,
Sanitary, eye-saving Acetylene.
